Beast Taming Clan: I Have a Jade Book

The entire trade fair, due to the sudden appearance of the Spirit-Blocking Robe Cultivators, instantly became somewhat tense in atmosphere.

It was still True Monarch Bailian who first picked up the Spirit Tea on the table, poured a cup, and then invited everyone to join in raising their glasses, thereby shifting the focus away.

After finishing the Spirit Tea, True Monarch Bailian, following the usual practice, took out three Jade Boxes.

”Everyone, this trade fair is conducted through bartering. If no trades are made, sales in Spirit Stones are also possible. However, I must state in advance that payments must be made with Upper-grade Spirit Stones. Additionally, if there are any flaws in the treasures, they must be disclosed beforehand to maintain harmony. Other than that, there are no other rules. I will set an example.”

Having finished speaking, he opened the three Jade Boxes one by one.

In the first Jade Box, there was surprisingly a palm-sized Ruyi.

”This is a Tier Five Treasure, Cyan Ruyi, capable of performing Illusion Skills and transforming into the Cyan Cloud Fox Beast Spirit for combat. Of course, I recommend not entering the Taihang Mountain Range with this treasure; other than that, there are no taboos!”

After speaking, True Monarch Bailian revealed the remaining two Jade Boxes.

In one of the Jade Boxes, there was a Spirit Medicine, a Three-Color Spirit Flower, resembling a trumpet, with extraordinarily long stamens akin to the whiskers of a carp.

It was precisely a Tier Five Tri-color Moonbeard Flower.

”This treasure, the Tri-color Moonbeard Flower, can enhance the True Essence of Water Attribute Cultivators and can be refined into Moon Mustache Pills.”

With True Monarch Bailian’s introduction, Ye Jingcheng couldn’t help but be intrigued.

Though this flower isn’t a Spirit Material for Jade Qilin Pill or Earth Dragon Pill, it is a Spirit Material for the Tier Five Roc Fish Pill, and Ye Jingcheng naturally felt tempted.

The last Jade Box contained a Tier Five Spirit Talisman.

The Spirit Talisman was somewhat translucent, as if the material was Spirit Jade.

”This talisman is a Tier Five Purification Talisman, capable of infusing a cultivator’s entire True Essence into the talisman, essentially granting an additional Spirit Puppet with the same strength as the cultivator. However, once activated, the talisman only lasts for the duration of an incense stick.”

Upon hearing this, even Ye Jingcheng and True Monarch Simurgh were moved.

This signified that the talisman’s power depended on the cultivator’s strength.

”Of course, if any of you wish for me to infuse True Essence, just wait for ten years.”

With True Monarch Bailian’s addition, all the cultivators became exceedingly enthusiastic.

After all, True Monarch Bailian’s strength was at the Late Stage of Nascent Soul, and with his entire True Essence, it would be equivalent to the aid of a Late-stage Nascent Soul Cultivator.

Although it only lasted for the duration of an incense stick, sometimes, not to mention the time of an incense stick, even three breaths could determine life and death.

As for waiting ten years, it was quite normal. True Monarch Bailian needed to preside over the situation at present and couldn’t afford to let his True Essence be depleted. In ten years, even through grinding, the talisman could be filled with True Essence.

”These three treasures of mine can only be exchanged for Spirit Pills that refine Nascent Soul Late-stage True Essence or Treasure Medicine that can loosen the bottleneck of the Nascent Soul Late-stage.”

However, when True Monarch Bailian stated the conditions, the cultivators couldn’t help but feel helpless.

The Spirit Medicine that can loosen the Nascent Soul Late-stage, and the Spirit Pills that refine Nascent Soul Late-stage True Essence, are not ordinary items.

They certainly didn’t have any.

Finally, it was a Golden Robe Nascent Soul from the Western Domain who exchanged for the Purification Talisman.

The remaining Cyan Ruyi and Tri-color Moonbeard Flower could not be traded away.

”These two treasures will be sold with Spirit Stones, the former with a base price of ten million Spirit Stones, and the latter with a base price of four million Spirit Stones.”

As the host, True Monarch Bailian did not take the treasures back but opted to sell them with Spirit Stones.

This mode of sale would naturally incur some losses, as treasures above Tier Five were rarely sold with Spirit Stones.

Even in most Tier Five auctions, the number of Tier Five treasures seldom exceeded five.

This was enough to illustrate the rarity of High Tier Treasures.

Ye Jingcheng, seeing this, was naturally overjoyed, as he was just worried about not having Spirit Medicine to exchange.

Although he had obtained quite a few Tier Five Spirit Medicines in the Earth Immortal Realm, only one could refine Nascent Soul Late-stage True Essence, and this one was the main ingredient for the advanced Earth Dragon Pill, still enveloped in the aura of the Earth Immortal Realm, which Ye Jingcheng naturally could not reveal.

Now able to purchase with Spirit Stones, Ye Jingcheng was naturally pleased to see this.

Eventually, the Tri-color Moonbeard Flower was won at his bid of five million three hundred thousand Spirit Stones, fulfilling his wish.

The Cyan Ruyi, however, was obtained by Xueyun Monarch for sixteen million Spirit Stones.

Once True Monarch Bailian’s treasures were auctioned off, Jinling True Monk from Jinguang Temple began taking out his Jade Boxes.

He only took out two Jade Boxes, one containing Golden Spring Jade Marrow aged three thousand years, and the other a Profound Yellow Jade Dust Lotus.

These two treasures, upon being produced, shone with Treasure Light reaching the sky and were brimming with Spiritual Energy.

Even Ye Jingcheng was tremendously surprised. The former could help Nascent Soul Cultivators remove bottlenecks, especially for the Early Stage, where just one drop could increase the breakthrough probability by about ten percent, and here were three drops available, possibly even breaking through the Mid-stage Nascent Soul bottleneck.

As for the second, the Jade Dust Lotus was precisely one of the main ingredients for the Earth Dragon Pill. If obtained, Ye Jingcheng’s Tier Five Earth Dragon Pill would, like the Tier Five Jade Qilin Pill, only lack the last main ingredient and the corresponding Tier Five Essence Blood to be fully refined.

This even made him a bit nervous.

After all, his bargaining chips were quite limited.

If this Golden Spirit True Monk wanted treasures that he could not provide, he might only watch helplessly as the spiritual medicine was taken away.

”These two items and the treasures exchanged with Daoist Bailian are similar. Of course, spiritual objects that extend life by more than a hundred years are also acceptable. However, I have already consumed the Fulu Shouyuan Fruit and the Sea Jade Golden Yuan Fruit, so no need to mention these two.”

Upon hearing this, Ye Jingcheng couldn’t help but let out a long sigh of relief.

He currently has seven Longevity Spiritual Peaches.

After transmitting to the Golden Spirit True Monk, the other party gladly agreed.

Once he obtained the Profound Yellow Jade Dust Lotus, Ye Jingcheng relaxed.

The results of this exchange meeting have already greatly exceeded his expectations.

Even if he gains nothing else next, he will not feel regretful.

And just as True Monarch Qingchen was about to take out treasures, the Spirit-Blocking Robe Cultivator started taking out treasures.

This scene naturally made everyone else somewhat angry; this cultivator, who concealed his identity in the shadows, forcibly joined, and also interrupted the order of treasures.

After all, there was actually a standard here, letting the powerful or high-status cultivators take their treasures first.

”Esteemed companions, and Senior Monks of Jinguang Temple, I have a young Vajra Bodhi Treasure Tree, only to exchange for Tier Five treasures that can steadfastly guard the Heart Spirit, preferably those that can prevent possession,” the cultivator preemptively said.

As soon as these words came out, all faces couldn’t help but change.

This Vajra Bodhi Tree is a treasure among treasures for Body Cultivators; after all, the Vajra Bodhi it produces surpasses the effect of the Nascent Soul Pill on Golden Core Body Cultivators breaking through to become Nascent Soul Body Cultivators.

Moreover, it may even cultivate into a Vajra Bodhi Treasure Body, which even Ye Jingcheng coveted.

The Ye Family consists of quite a bit of Body Cultivators.

However, upon hearing the treasures for exchange, Ye Jingcheng couldn’t help but hesitate in his heart.

He speculated, fearing that within this cultivator’s sect, someone would fall victim to the Penglai Dao Stealing, discovered but restrained from publicizing due to the entire sect, thus forced to ask for help from the competitors.

No wonder he took the risk to come.

Besides, he was confident that the others wouldn’t refuse the exchange.

Ye Jingcheng actually has such a Tier Five Treasure, but unfortunately, he obtained it from Sikong Ziming, so it’s naturally unsuitable to take out at this moment.

After hesitating for a while, the Golden Spirit True Monk was the first to speak up:

”Fellow Daoist, since it’s an exchange, where is the treasure tree?”

This mysterious cultivator took out only a Spiritual Light projection from the treasure box.

There was no physical Vajra Bodhi Tree.

”It’s atop a desolate mountain outside. If you have the treasure, just follow me to fetch it,” the mysterious cultivator replied.

The Golden Spirit True Monk promptly took out a piece of Golden Lotus Jade Treasure.

”This is refined from a Tier Five Thousand-Leaf Golden Lotus, able to prevent possession and guard the Heart Spirit. But if you dare deceive me, even if you are on Penglai Island, I can still execute you!” he said solemnly.

These words made the person frown but still nodded.

The two completed the transaction and headed outside.

Obviously, at this moment, they couldn’t wait.

And the others no longer had the mind for the exchange meeting, so they followed together, also to prevent the other party from setting a trap.

When they arrived on a Spirit Mountain at the edge of the Divine Medicine Valley, there was a Teleportation Array atop the mountain, with a cultivator seated upon it.

Seeing everyone approaching, the person indeed revealed a long jade box.

Opening the jade box revealed a radiant and magnificent Bodhi Treasure Tree.

However, the tree’s roots and stems were not well-maintained, and it was just about a fifty-year-old young tree.

The Teleportation Array started up at that moment as well.

”Exchange or not.” The mysterious Flying Puppet first asked.

The Golden Spirit True Monk then tossed the Golden Lotus Jade, and the cultivator atop the Teleportation Array similarly threw out the jade box.

At the last moment of the teleportation light, as the jade box was in hand, the cultivator holding the Golden Lotus Jade also disappeared from the Teleportation Array.

Of course, at this point, the Golden Spirit True Monk’s expression was not good because the Vajra Bodhi Tree’s roots and stems were poorly maintained, there was a certain chance of withering in a hundred years, and naturally, no Vajra Bodhi would be produced.

Thus wasting a Tier Five Defense Treasure in vain.

”Everyone, let’s return and resume the exchange meeting.” The Golden Spirit True Monk put away the jade box and said nothing more, leading everyone back to Medicine King Mountain.

But True Monarch Bailian lingered here a bit longer, arranging some patrols and checking if there were any other missed Teleportation Arrays.

This time it’s merely teleportation to exchange treasures. If next time, they teleport over for an assault, the consequences would be dire.

True Monarch Bailian naturally would not allow such a situation to happen.
